Description

The Crown Jewel of Japatual Valley has finally come on the market. This spectacular custom-built home is perched upon the very top of Illahee Ridge above Horse Thief Canyon. The home is a sanctuary of peace and privacy, and one of a select few that directly borders Cleveland National Forest. This home may have the best views of any home in San Diego County, including panoramas of Corte Madera, Mt. Laguna and Mt. Cuyamaca to the East and the Pacific Ocean to the west. The property is filled with mature oaks, beautiful manzanitas, and large granite boulders. It has been meticulously cleared and manicured, into a 7-acre picturesque park. Deer, foxes, rabbits, squirrels, road runners, and coyotes frequently comb the grounds, while blue jays, red tail hawks, and other birds soar overhead. The silence, serenity, privacy, solitude, and breathtaking views off the back patio provide peaceful tranquility and yet the home is only 40 minutes from downtown. You will have no problem leaving work behind at this house. The home sits at an elevation of 3,100 feet and gets light snow a few times each year. The backyard has unobstructed, breathtaking views of multiple canyons and powerful mountain ranges, including Horse Thief Canyon, Pine Creek Canyon, Secret Canyon, Pine Valley, none of which have a single structure on them. Just pure nature as far as you can see. The front yard is just as majestic with beautiful ridges, valleys, and views that go all the way to the Pacific Ocean. You can literally watch the sun drop into the ocean 6 months out of the year in spectacular sunsets
